## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | none |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__agent-deals__check_x402_service` `mcp__agent-deals__find_cheapest_x402_service` `mcp__agent-deals__get_page_metadata` `mcp__agent-deals__preflight_x402_payment` `mcp__agent-deals__read_web_page` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__agent-deals__check_x402_service` `mcp__agent-deals__get_page_metadata` `mcp__agent-deals__preflight_x402_payment` `mcp__agent-deals__read_web_page` |

## Findings

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `preflight_x402_payment` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "preflight_x402_payment" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "irreversible".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "preflight_x402_payment" says "payment": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back.
```


## Can't be undone (1)

Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask.

### `preflight_x402_payment`

- The name "preflight_x402_payment" says "payment": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
FREE. Run this before paying any x402 (HTTP 402) service. Pass the service URL and the PAYMENT-REQUIRED value it sent you (or price_usd and pay_to). Returns GO / CAUTION / STOP with reasons: is the service working, is the price fair (vs its public listing, what our monitor saw, and similar services), is the wallet it asks you to pay safe and the one it normally uses?
```

## Changes things (1)

Creates or changes something that can be changed back. Claude Code: ask.

### `check_x402_service`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
FREE. Before paying an x402 (HTTP 402) API, check it: is it up right now, does its real price match its listing, and is there a cheaper service that does the same job? Covers ~25,000 paid agent APIs, re-checked continuously.
```

## Only reads (3)

Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow.

### `find_cheapest_x402_service`

- The name "find_cheapest_x402_service" says "find": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Describe what you need; get the cheapest WORKING paid APIs for it, ranked by live price, uptime and speed, with example inputs. 20 free calls per day per client, then $0.002 per call via x402 (USDC on Base).
```

### `get_page_metadata`

- The name "get_page_metadata" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data. The description's first sentence says "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write. The input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Claude Code: ask, because it is tagged outbound.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Title, description, canonical URL, language, site name, author, publish date, image and JSON-LD of a public page. $0.002 per call via x402.
```

### `read_web_page`

- The name "read_web_page" says "read": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data. The name "read_web_page" says "read" and "web": it reads web pages, which anyone can write. The description's first sentence says "fetch" and "web": it reads web pages, which anyone can write. The input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Claude Code: ask, because it is tagged outbound.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetch a public web page or PDF and return clean Markdown of the main content, plus title, author, date, JSON-LD and links. $0.003 per call via x402. Failed reads are not charged.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `agent-deals`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__agent-deals__find_cheapest_x402_service"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__agent-deals__preflight_x402_payment",
      "mcp__agent-deals__check_x402_service",
      "mcp__agent-deals__read_web_page",
      "mcp__agent-deals__get_page_metadata"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

Capability tags behind the rules (a read tagged outbound is asked about):

- `mcp__agent-deals__preflight_x402_payment`: untrusted-input, outbound
- `mcp__agent-deals__check_x402_service`: untrusted-input, outbound
- `mcp__agent-deals__find_cheapest_x402_service`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__agent-deals__read_web_page`: untrusted-input, outbound
- `mcp__agent-deals__get_page_metadata`: untrusted-input, outbound

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T14:59:42.007Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T14:59:42.007Z. No credentials were sent and no tool was called. Values are shown as the endpoint returned them. Method: https://anlyon.dev/methodology#remote-posture

| Fact | Observed |
| --- | --- |
| Reachable | `yes` |
| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |
| Tools that change things, listed without credentials | `2` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |
| resource_metadata in WWW-Authenticate | `none` |
| RFC 9728 protected resource metadata | `none` |
| Authorization servers | `none` |
| Legacy HTTP+SSE transport | `no` |
| Dynamic client registration | `not observed` |
| Client ID metadata documents | `not observed` |

- **high** Tools that change things, listed to anyone ([unauth-remote-writes](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#unauth-remote-writes))

```untrusted-server-text
The endpoint served tools/list without credentials, and the list has 2 tools that change things (1 irreversible, 1 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://agent-deals.gm-tools.workers.dev/mcp: tools/list returned 5 tools to an anonymous client, including preflight_x402_payment (irreversible), check_x402_service (write)
```
